Visible crew/equipment: In the shot where Lewis and Gilbert arrive at Adam's College and are carrying the trunk to the dorm, you see two bicycles crash together. Look closely on the concrete sidewalk below them and you will see the shadow of the film crew rolling by. (00:07:35)

Answer: First, Lewis and Betty are not "having sex" - he is raping her, and the writer and director later described it as "not excusable" (https://decider.com/2019/07/26/revenge-of-the-nerds-rape-scene-regret/). Second, the song you hear is "Right Time for Love" by Jill Michaels and Pat Robinson. It was not written for the film.
